I was passing an opinion on Miller not attempting to be unpleasant towards you. He must have been responsible for at least half a dozen goals so far this season. Don't think I've ever said Tronstad is "hopeless" pretty ordinary is more apt but either way my views on him are completely irrelevant to my views on Miller. Apologies if you've taken umbrage at anything I've posted, it's a message board at the end of the day and I've merely posted my opinion, Im not attempting to upset anyone. I can't recall you taking particular exception to anything anyone else posted so if you don't like the stuff I post for some whatever reason Id imagine the option is there to put me on ignore.

Yeah but it’s bloody obvious he was getting there first

That's not the laws of the game

Doesn’t matter about the distance to goal or the ball. He’s last man end of.

It IS denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity. Which is clearly was. Not an obvious goal. You can't interpret rules differently based on a players ability and what they might do next attacker or defender in the phase of play that was denied. If he's in the box it's a penalty and arguably a yellow card if he tried to play the ball. Outside the box the rules are clear that this is a red card. It's possibly the worst decision I've ever seen at Ewood. As I say I'm certain it was club bias, I'm confident Pratt, McLoughlin or Miller walk if the roles are reversed.

Pretty sure it's 16 😕

I am surprised that anyone thinks it should have been anything other than a red. But it didnt cost us the game, thats the key. We held a 1 nil lead going into injury time, again. We might have not had that lead in a totally different game against 10, we might have had a stronger lead, we will never know. The game was thrown away by us, not the referee.

He was announced in their 55 man provisional squad yesterday, have they formalised the final squad already?

no,it`s a pre requisite in the commercial and financial departments,the manager and coaches just have to bend over and take it,if they want a job

If they did show that, then it shows how data can be misleading or at least misinterpreted. What would they stand out at?

Is there a deterrent for being useless at Blackburn Rovers?

Announced. Called up to Nigeria. First game is Tuesday 23rd December V Tanzania.

"Truly top level" De Neve - Not Championship standard Taveres - Not Championship standard, one of the worst Centre mids we've had for sometime Henriksson - Not Championship standard Lewis Miller - Ok but probably the worst passer of a ball i've ever seen Gudjohnsen - Right place, right time (great knack for a striker), all round game is abysmal Baradji - Unknown really but doesn't look anything particularly special from his game time so far Morishita - Good footballer, shows flashes, really struggles with the physicality of the Championship Alebiosu - Good McLoughlin - Average TGH - Poor mans Trav, average at best 🤷‍♂️

imo the ref was caught daydreaming and did`nt see the incident,hence he panicked and guessed,he also missed a blatant bodycheck on yuki,which should have been a penalty,if the refereeing adjudicator has even bothered to evaluate him,then he should be given a warning for a terrible performance,which is basically the problem with officiating in this country,you can get away with being useless because there is no deterent

Pretty much no difference apart from the distance to goal & that the ball is going to come down in the player's stride

Alebiosu and Gudjohsnon both look like good finds as for the rest....seems like we might be getting more low value 'unearthing gems' model from Belgium/Swiss 2nd division judging by Rudy Gestede comments on LinkedIn looking at spend and approach from FC Midtjylland

Football League world have him going to us or Hull Hull it is then

Some good (ish) news, he will miss less games if called up

Hahahaaha bored Ian? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thanks for clarifying - no need to apologise as I actually misinterpreted your words.

We've conceded 6 in added on time, due to bad tactics from the manager.

Spot on underrated post

Apologies for the lack of clarity, yes I meant bringing de neve on for hedges rather Ribero, I know hedges was injured. Another one to add to our casualty ward.

I agree, and our strikers failing to kill games off, 2-0 3-0 etc.
